Tayah Hatagwila

Dipl.OM, MTCM, LAc

Tayah chose a career in Chinese Medicine so that she could make a positive impact on individuals' health and well-being. She finds it highly rewarding to assist patients with chronic conditions, pain management, and various other health issues. Her greatest satisfaction comes from observing how acupuncture liberates individuals from their limitations, enabling them to live the life they desire.

Some highlights from Tayah’s career include:

  • Master of Traditional Chinese Medicine (MTCM) from The Five Branches University in Santa Cruz, CA, graduating class of 2012.
  • Licensed Acupuncturist (LAc) in the State of California, active since 2013.
  • Diplomate of Oriental Medicine (Dipl.OM) National Acupuncture Accreditation (NCCAOM), active since 2020.

Tayah’s favorite aspect of working in the clinic is sharing ancient modalities of healing and allowing our modern world to benefit from this restorative medicine. Observing her patients as they progress towards a balanced path truly brings her joy. She is passionate about addressing a variety of situations and recognizing that everyone is unique mentally, physically, and spiritually. The comprehensive nature of Asian Medicine accommodates all these aspects.

When not at work, Tayah enjoys spending time with her family. They love to hike, camp in the mountains, and prepare healthy meals together. Often, her nine-year-old son leads them all in a “comic drawing fest”.

One interesting fact about Tayah is that she is an avid horse enthusiast. She loves horseback riding and cherishes the time spent working with these noble animals at the local Equestrian Center.
